The Speedlite’s flash head zooms
automatically to provide adequate flash
coverage for the current lens focal

length. The Speedlite can provide

adequate flash coverage for 24mm to

105mm lens focal lengths. If a zoom lens

is zoomed, the flash head also zooms to

suit the lens focal length. The flash

head's zoom setting can also be set
manually.

The Speedlite’s built-in wide panel

provides flash coverage for 17mm wide-
angle lenses.
